    My Do It Myself List

    January 23, 2014 / No Comments

    I am a list writer. I write lists of lists, and master lists of the lists that lists what’s on those lists. However, I also get shit done. I fully embrace that as an adult I am responsible for the outcome in my life and ever more so now that I have no one to depend on and Single Motherhood means that I have two young adults who need to follow in my shit-getting-done example.

    Haze Gray Matter

    July 25, 2008 / No Comments

    I think the most irritating thing about my dear military husband is that he likes to pretend that I don’t know what he is up to. Let me explain: I took a short trip this past weekend to visit my mother. He was supposed to have been on that trip, but his ship’s schedule changed at the last minute so he had to stay behind to get underway while I was gone. I left a small “honey do” list, and on it I requested that before he left the house, could he please take out the trash? Nothing major, I wasn’t asking him to redo my kitchen. Why is it…

    I am guilty of packing too much busyness into my days. I get all caught up in the “To Do” list that I forget how much fun it is to just take a break. I wish now, as the month of July comes to a close, that I had been able to have more of a break these last few months.

I blog about the random ass shit going on in my life. I'm a single mom, a Navy veteran, avid reader, and coping with life post-divorce. I have two sons and five cats, so clearly, I'm a catch. I pull no punches and use salty language. Read at your own risk.
